Nat “King” Cole - Return to Paradise Lyrics | gotlyric.com

Songwriter: Ned Washington Dimitri Tiomkin

Producer: Lee Gillette

Come, my love, with me
Across the sea;
Return to paradise

All in life worthwhile
Is on that isle;
Return to paradise

*Velvet moon above
Evil turns to love
Love evermore

Come with me and find
Your peace of mind;
Return to paradise

(Instrumental interlude and pick up at bridge*.)
*Velvet moon above
Evil turns to love
Love evermore

Come with me and find
Your peace of mind;
Return to paradise

Nat “King” Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (17 March 1919 – 15 February 1965) was born in Montgomery, Alabama and used the stage name Nat “King” Cole throughout his career as a jazz pianist and later as a singer.

Cole’s first mainstream hit was “Straighten Up and Fly Right” in 1943. Bo Diddley, who performed similar folk-based material said that song was a big influence on him.

In the late 40s, Cole began recording more pop-oriented material. His stature as a pop singer was cemented by hits like “Route 66”, “Mona Lisa” and “Unforgettable”. In the 50s, virtually every home had a copy of his Christmas album.
